This pretty home is rustic in style yet beautifully modernised and decorated. With a soaring timbered ceiling in the main living area, wooden floorboards and a gorgeous white timber kitchen, it exudes character. The kitchen is well-equipped, including a microwave, dishwasher and Nespresso coffee machine, and can seat 3 on stools at the island bench. The country style dining table seats 6, and the large comfy leather sofa invites the family to watch a movie at night on the smart TV with Apple TV provided (pay for your own movies). There is also a DVD player. If the weather gets cool, enjoy the warmth of the wood fire. Reverse air-conditioning ensures comfort in the summer and there are also ceiling fans.

Step out from the kitchen onto the spacious, cool veranda with its two comfy armchairs and another dining suite for 10. The level lawn meets the river frontage with its own slipway into the water. With only one neighbour, it’s private and tranquil. Listen to the trill of local birdlife and watch for twilight wildlife. Kayaks are provided for your use, and there is a cute cubby house for the children to play in, or try your hand at fishing or catching crabs. Enjoy the firepit in the cooler evenings.

The master bedroom has a Queen Bed and access to the veranda. The second bedroom is spacious, with a bunk (single above, double below), a trundle and a pull-out bed is also available. Plenty of storage is on offer in the built-in robe. The two bedrooms share a beautiful bathroom with a stained glass window and gorgeous original features. It has a shower, toilet and vanity. There is also a washing machine provided,

While the indoors is absolutely delightful and well-equipped for maximum comfort, you’ll be spending most of your time outside by the river, crabbing, fishing or kayaking, or cooking on the BBQ on the veranda. It’s truly idyllic!

Pets considered by owner for a $100 pet fee.
The setting is superb. Dolphins and pelicans are your local visitors and at night time a friendly possum or two. North Yunderup is a sleepy nest and you’ll wonder at the peace and tranquillity. There are some local pubs and restaurants on the opposite side of the river and Pinjarra is a 10 minute drive where you’ll find a cafe, bakery, Redcliffe’s restaurant and Coles, as well as the golf course and Ranger Red’s Zoo and Conservation Park.

Mandurah is a 20 minute drive away with large shopping outlets and an array of cafes and restaurants. The beaches along this stretch of coast are stunning and well worth a visit. There are plenty of local nature walks as well as the historic Coopers Mill to explore. South Yunderup also offers an amazing kids adventure playground and supermarket.

But you honestly will not want to leave the property once you arrive, River Cottage is so idyllic. Don’t pass this one by!
